    If you are looking for dining mixed with an experience, this is the place. I have been going to the Fort Worth location for years. This one is ever bit as good and quaint. I was on a dad-daughter date and our night was perfect. Tony and his staff are top notch. Very attentive and from the cheese fondue, salads, assortment of protein and finish with the chocolate fondue it was all delicious.

    10/10 everything. To start the atmosphere was beautiful. The host Nancy was very kind and welcoming, along with our server, Taylor, she was absolutely lovely and very personable. And to top it all off the food was superb! The perfect spot to have girls nights or host others and wow them, my sister said the flavors were bursting in her mouth lol!

    Fantastic as always. I am usually not a fan of big hotel restaurants. But this one has delivered every time we have visited for a decade. The antelope is the only main I’ve ever ordered. It’s actually the reason for going. But everything (we always go with friends and share) on the menu is delicious. Top that with top level service as the server somehow knowing that I have always started my meals there with a Fearings Old Fashioned!?!?!? and one has the makings of a memorable evening and dining experience.

    The entire staff, including the front desk and full team of servers, was wonderful. Food was great and consistent with other Catch meals we’ve had previously in NYC. We had our infant with us so we booked an early reservation, and while the restaurant was decently busy at 5pm, by the time we left at 7:45pm it was packed and definitely a place to be!

    Our table for 6 was ready right on time, and our server was excellent- attentive and prompt and friendly. She was quite professional. We’ve eaten there many times and the food was, as usual, delicious. We never felt rushed, and we never felt neglected! The other story is that when I made this reservation, the system had no tables for 6 available at the time I needed, so I grabbed one for 4 and one for 2. I wrote a brief comment to Hudson House - Lakewood that it was a disappointment. Within an hour I received a notice and an updated email that my reservation had been changed to 6! I keep dining there because of customer service over all categories. Rande
